Mitsui & Co has initiated the construction of an ammonia plant in the United Arab Emirates in partnership with Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) to promote cleaner energy production. The project, located in Al Ruwais, aims to produce 1 million metric tons of ammonia annually starting from 2027. By implementing measures to capture and store CO2 emissions during the manufacturing process, the plant plans to transition to producing clean ammonia by 2030, contributing to a reduction in carbon footprint. Mitsui intends to use the clean ammonia for various purposes in Japan and other Asian markets, including as fuel, chemical feedstock, and fertilizer. Additionally, the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC) has provided financial support for the project by signing a loan agreement with Mitsui, furthering the development of sustainable energy solutions. This initiative signifies a step towards building global supply chains for greener fuels like hydrogen and ammonia to combat climate change and promote environmental sustainability.
